I spent most of today preparing for my single class tomorrow. I reviewed Harry Wong's "The First Days of School", the Bible for any new teacher and every teacher as they begin a new school year. Harry Wong is my hero. To hear him on his videos or on tape is invigorating. Makes you want to teach, and do it well. Then I spent time reviewing pertinent information about the Middle Ages so I could lead the class discussion. Finally, I've spent the last hour searching through TrackStar. Trackstar is an awesome website, for teachers and for students. Teachers post lessons (primarily web-based) so you can benefit from the research others have done. As Hubby says, I'm just a geeky history teacher, through and through.
